Japanese Carvings Which stone / K for the sharpening should I use?
I make wood carvings, and I am interested in sharpening with Japanese water stones. I have to work with not much money, so I did this in two ways. A K 1000/6000 combo box or a combo Wasserstein 800/4000 grit water stone? Both would give me a sharp edge to carve right? Thank you!
Go 1000/6000 with the stone for wood carving .. You do not need a rough Stone carving knife as to alerts, you can easily ruin ..
